    Service was a disaster. Food never came out, besides an app that was not good. Stay away.

    There were bones in one of the chicken tacos and we told our server but we’re still charged full price for the dish.

    The host told Open Table that we were no-shows. Ugh. We showed up a few minutes early, pointed out our name on his iPad reservation system, were seated in the rooftop, spent $75, and left happy. Now we have to deal with providing evidence to Open Tabke that we weren’t no-shows. Ugh.

    Service was attentive and friendly, we were able to be seated early without difficulty. Food was good, especially the tasty variety of tacos we had. Ambience was relaxed, nice after a busy day or driving and hiking
